Urban Planning. There is a four-tier system in Finland. The Finnish Land Use and Building Act (1999/132) regulates spatial planning in Finland; this is implemented through regional land use plans by 21 Regional Councils, where the overall guidelines are incorporated and in more detail in municipal master plans and local detailed plans (city plans). The main goal is to create the conditions for a good living environment and its development. The Land Use and Building Act includes the National Building Code which consists of actual decrees that are mandatory. The municipal master plan presents the general guidance regarding the community structure and the principles of targeted development and defines the areas for detailed planning, building and other land use. A city plan presents a detailed organisation of land use, building and development. It defines e.g., location, size and purposed use of buildings.
Urban Planning. While in Seattle, the delegation visited the Port of Seattle to gain knowledge in the transition from a port city dominated by railroad cargo to an area of business, recreation, and cultural activities. In addition, the delegation met with officials from the Port of Tacoma to discuss the city’s efforts to clean up the Xxxx Waterway and restore the natural fish habitat. Tacoma Port officials described the funding mechanism used to finance such projects. The funding aspect was of great interest to the delegation. Xx Xxxxxxxxxx, the Senior Director for Trade and Development discussed the possibility of a sister port relationship. Tourism & Trade: The tourism and trade component ended with a final discussion of trade promotion for the City of Seattle in both the domestic and international realm. The Trade Alliance will consider Vietnam and Thailand for inclusion in the 2004 business and trade mission. In addition, the delegation visited the Friday Harbor, San Xxxx Island to discuss ways to promote tourism that is environmentally sustainable and does not harm the natural assets that attract tourism. The Port of Friday Harbor officials discussed the budget, revenue sources, staffing levels. In addition, the delegation learned ways to allocate retail and business space in a manner that is regulated and fair. Information Technology & Web Site (Complete): With assistance from the City of Seattle, Haiphong has revised the website design and increased technical expertise in website development and management. The City and the Trade Development Alliance of Greater Seattle will continue to provide advice as needed. Public Health: The public health component provides for long-term assistance in the areas of infectious disease, emergency response, and training for medical staff. The delegation met with representatives from the medical field. Xx. Xxxxxx, the Director for the Seattle-King County Department of Health emphasized the importance of public health in promoting tourism.
Urban Planning. Context Since June 2002, Montréal has been developing an Urban Master Plan for the new City. This plan provides an integrated and strategic overview of the City’s planning and development goals. The issues, preliminary guidelines and principal challenges have been identified and will be discussed in the future. Already, however, there is widespread consensus on the need to revitalize certain neighbourhoods, improve quality of life, get rid of vacant lots, recycle vacant or rundown buildings, and redevelop certain sectors. Revitalizing neighbourhoods and boroughs means improving the overall quality of life of residents, as this is a key factor in determining where individuals and businesses decide to locate. Improvements may take various forms: recycling buildings for community purposes, regenerating public spaces, rehabilitating certain neighbourhood parks, modernizing local commercial streets, creating pedestrian zones, etc. The choice of actions not only depends on the physical condition of these elements, but also on the concerns of residents and their perception of the environment. Residents must participate in the decisions that affect them. It was in this vein that the government’s Renouveau urbain program was set up in early 2002. A budget of $64 million has already been earmarked for Montréal, financed in equal measure by the City and the Government. The latter would like, in this City Contract, to give Montréal maximum leeway to implement the program. As far as lasting revitalization of the City is concerned, more intensive actions than those outlined in the Renouveau urbain program are required. In several Montréal neighbourhoods there are rundown institutional buildings, abandoned railway right- of-ways, shunting yards, dilapidated industrial spaces and other wastelots. Often located in areas with good public transit and services, these areas have a strategic development value and strong transformative potential. This is particularly true of the area around the Canadian Pacific railway between the site of the former Angus Shops and the western boundary of the borough of Outremont. Given the high costs involved, a specific approach is required for projects of this nature.

Urban Planning. In quite some member countries cities have already obligations to explicitly pay attention to climate change in relation to urban planning (land use, infrastructure, public health/DRR). The general drivers in the background are safety and damage avoidance, some- times leading to or necessitating to recast design approaches. For example, integrating river water in land use rather than purely defending against it, which may—over time—affect the demand for climate services (e.g. water quality concerns getting more important in addition to the original focus on water levels/volumes).
Urban Planning. Consultant: STP Based on the concepts and recommendations of the Draft Framework and on those of the 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx, XXX will provide recommendations and exhibits for urban design elements within the project area, generally organized into the following topics: Freeway Identity and Wayfinding The Avenue K interchange is the primary gateway to the South Commerce Center. Specific improvements envisioned to signal the approach to the Avenue K interchange include enhanced landscape at Xxxxxx X-0, and along the east side of XX-00 xxxxxxx Xxxxxx X-0 and Avenue K to improve the visibility, appearance and identify of the Auto Mall. Similar improvements may be contemplated for the west side of SR-14 as well, along the frontage of City-owned properties. Gateway Identity and Wayfinding Redevelopment opportunities surrounding the Avenue K corridor will be taken into consideration. 00xx Xxxxxx Xxxx and 15th Street West are key gateway intersections into the Lancaster Auto Mall, and South Commerce district, and 15th St/Hospital District, and wayfinding signage and streetscape and landscape improvements for these intersections and frontages will be studied. Corridor Identity, Wayfinding, Function and Development Potential A Complete Streets strategy – integrating landscape, wayfinding signage and public art with the all-mode transportation solutions identified in Caltrans’ Complete Streets program – is recommended for all of the major streets within the project area. Key destinations include the Lancaster Auto Mall, and the Amargosa Creek Specific Plan area to the south of Avenue K and the Health District and Boulevard/Downtown District to the north. Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities As the area around the Avenue K Interchange is expected to become increasingly more bikable and walkable in accordance with the Master Plan of Trails and Bikeways (MPTB), the pedestrian and bicycle facilities on streets within the project area should be studied to identify the potential bicycle and pedestrian facility improvements. As such, there is an opportunity for the Avenue K corridor improvements to facilitate and potentially improve the bicycle facilities and routing described in the MPTB. Deliverable(s): Exhibits of key destinations, wayfinding signage location/information, including those for pedestrian and bicycle and streetscape improvements along Avenue K, 15th Street West, and potentially 00xx Xxxxxx West, to accommodate gateway and infill possibilities. Exhibits...
